Guest guest Posted October 12, 2001 Report Share Posted October 12, 2001 All living creatures of whatever class, born from eggs, from wombs, frommoisture, or by transformation whether with form or without form, whether in a state of thinking or exempt from thought-necessity, or wholly beyond all thought realms - all these are causes by Me to attain Unbounded Liberation Nirvâna. Yet, when vast, uncountable, immeasurable numbers of beeings have thus been liberated, verily no beeing has been liberated. WHY is this, Subhuti? It is because NO bodhisattva who is a real bodhisattva cherishes the idea of an EGO-identity, a personality, a beeing or a separated individuality. - Gautama Buddha, The Diamond Sûtra, Ch.3.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2001 Report Share Posted October 13, 2001 Fantastic how the revelation of the true nature is a return to what has always been there... and no change at all... Hope all of you are well.
